You must not follow boxing much because Whytes been flat out knocked out before multiple times before he ever fought Fury and he didn’t even throw many punches in that one . Your to emotionally invested to have any normal discussion here . Lol
I’m beyond exited for Francis, but folks often confuse “doing better than expected” with winning. There were 6 rounds in which Fury out-landed Francis. There was a round they tied for punches landed, you can coin flip who won that round. To put it into perspective, Francis only landed 7 or more punches in 3 rounds, while Fury did it in 6 rounds. Saying that Francis won definitively shows people don’t know what they’re watching in boxing.
Fury’s title defenses are Chisora and Whyte . I don’t think there’s any conversation to be had is there about how great he is ? Do you even know who Chisora is ,did you not see or read about the Ngannou fight a novice ? Give me a break about the topic of great or how good someone is because it’s not in this conversation. Fury’s a top heavyweight but he’s also extremely overrated and always has been .You lost me with this one, you are all over the place. That is a tell tale sign of emotions running high. Grammatical errors, personal attacks....it's all on display in your post.
You did something called projecting, which comes from an insecure place.
Let's try to focus on the discussion at hand instead.
lol at your 'Fury was never that good' take. Clown stuff bro.
Not to be a UFC apologist or anything, but the UFC gave Ngannou the platform to build his popularity allowing him to fight a top boxer like Fury. If he were to come into boxing from the streets he'd probably be fighting some can in a bingo hall somewhere..As the plan unfolded, it does cast some doubts on the UFC's claims of being the best career choice for fighters.
Here's another important point: Ngannou arguably won a boxing match against Fury, while Gane outstruck Ngannou clearly when they fought.
Where are all those Francis haters and ufc shills who kept saying Francis is gonna be exploited as a punching bag and a very bad businessman?
To be fair, Francis went into that fight needing surgery on his leg.Here's another important point: Ngannou arguably won a boxing match against Fury, while Gane outstruck Ngannou clearly when they fought.
No, I definitely don't. What Ngannou pulled off was nothinbg short of spectacular. He was supposed to get demolished in rounds one or two.Do you see Gane dropping Fury tho? Outboxing Fury?
No one would want to see that fight
I feel like Francis winning a boxing fight (which he did last night unofficially) is a bad look for the sport of boxing. They let Conor n Francis fight the biggest stars in boxing because of the buzz these guys could create, but I think they thought Conor or Francis didn’t stand a chance. After the Francis fight last night I’m really interested in seeing how they move forward with him.Usyk vs Fury then Usyk vs Ngannou after Usyk wins.
Kicks matter. Gane doesn't just rely on his hands.Here's another important point: Ngannou arguably won a boxing match against Fury, while Gane outstruck Ngannou clearly when they fought.
Everyone was saying that and saying it doesn't make you Francis hater, it was common senseWhere are all those Francis haters and ufc shills who kept saying Francis is gonna be exploited as a punching bag and a very bad businessman?

the output was very low throughout the fight though and very slow paced
